a lot of questions answered last night in part two of lance armstrong's interview with oprah winfrey. the embattled cyclist talked about admitting to his family about doping. he said he told his sons, stop defending him. a former teammate, tyler hamilton had this reaction to the interview. >> it is a first step. he is coming clean. he is telling the story that he has taken performance enhancing joe -- drugs. >> was a genuine emotion? >> i think so. i went through the same process on a much smaller scale. it is going to get easier for him. i think he will open up much more. i think we saw a lot of the truth, but not the whole truth. >> hamilton went on to say that he has never seen lance armstrong shed a tear in their time together, until last night. he says he does not need an apology, he has moved on with his life. >> the home of the tour de france was covered in heavy snow tonight. it may look pretty, but across the country, this has caused some serious traffic problems and accidents. flights have been grounded. it does not appear that any of that is bothering people on the streets
